bad drivers & happy kitties

so when i got to work this morning, there were firetrucks & police cars all over the place. turns out it was because of this:

....because who doesn't like to start their day by driving a car straight into an office building?

sadly, you can't see the full comical effect here - i snapped that pic hurriedly with my phone while the policemen and firemen looked on somewhat disapprovingly - but the window there is completely smashed, and the hood of the car is all crumpled up. it looked so incredibly fake. like a staged movie set, or something.

(no one was hurt. it's acceptable to mock, that means.)

so! yesterday was very exciting, since when i got home i had my prize package from fiona waiting for me! (fiona: i didn't link for Stalker Reasons, but let me know if you're OK with linkage yet..?) as she said on her blog, she sent me a patterson novel (knowing i'm a fan), treats for the kittens (so sweet!) and a tonks keychain, since she still has not conceded defeat in the kitten-naming arena :-)

this probably means i should hold my own pay-it-foward-esque contest, eh? hmm... i'll have to think of something contesty. i SUCK at coming up with new ideas, though. i'll probably check out all the other pay-it-forward contests and copy one of THOSE. lazy people, unite!

LOL! That picture is GREAT! My high school best friend drove into a building right after she got her license. She had a migraine and just "missed" the brake pedal. I laughed at her about that for years!

And yay for kitty pictures! I can't have a kitty (hubby is allergic), so I live vicariously through your pictures. So, so cute.
